Internship Feature Writer Jobs in Seattle, WA (NOW HIRING)

Do you want to work on a service that delivers single-digit millisecond access to petabytes of data, replicates tables seamlessly across continents, streams gigabytes of data updates continuously, backs up hundreds of terabytes of customer data in seconds, and encrypts petabytes of data with zero performance degradation? If building and operating one of the world's largest and most trusted distributed databases at unprecedented scale excites you - we'd love to talk.
Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed, serverless, NoSQL database that does all this and more. It provides fast and predictable performance with seamless scalability. DynamoDB receives tens of millions of read and write requests per second to databases that are hundreds of terabytes in size. DynamoDB is one of the largest distributed database systems in the world, and we continue to believe it is Day 1 for the DynamoDB business. We are always improving and adding new capabilities to DynamoDB, and we are looking for a deeply technical, team-first software development engineer to push DynamoDB even further.
DynamoDB engineers are continually challenged to think of unique and innovative solutions. As an engineer here, you will work on the hardest engineering problems in distributed systems at massive scale on multiple dimensions. You will exercise your intellectual capability to the maximum and work with motivated teams of sharp individuals. You also will get insightful and opinionated guidance from senior and principal engineers.
As a member of the DynamoDB data management group, you will innovate on the platform that is responsible for driving the data protection and analytics for the NoSQL business. We are building fully managed serverless solutions to help customers seamlessly move data between DynamoDB and their data lakes.
This is a hands-on position in which you will own everything from end to end: design, design reviews, implementation, code reviews, iterative feature launches, operations, mentoring, and driving continuous improvement.
